Giggle Beans

Nick went to Giggle Beans to celebrate his birthday. He got to play with all sorts of wonderful stuff. He loved the train that went around the track all by itself.
He liked the car table. He loved the pizza, especially the cheese!
He got some presents, too! He was very interested in the Backyardigan wrapping paper!
But Nicholas himself was the best present of all!!

Economizing

Due to the downturn in the economy, Tim and I have been looking for creative and affordable ways to provide playthings for Nick. As it turns out, all you need to entertain a 1 year old for hours is an empty Cheez-It box!

Practicing My Skills

Eating and Drinking

Nicholas loves to eat and drink from his cup. However, despite his love of food, he is still a little bitty thing. He doesn't even weigh 19 pounds yet!

One

Can you believe my baby boy is One?! How quickly this year has flown by! He is such a big boy now - trying to take his first steps, chatting, getting into everything he can reach, (he especially likes the dirt in the houseplants) and in general, turning into a toddler instead of a baby. It has been the best year ever!

Nick had a birthday banana muffin to celebrate. He loved it - it was almost as big as he is!

Twelve Months Old!!!!

Watching My Programs

Hmm... very interesting.

Nick likes to watch the Wonder Pets. He also likes Dora the Explorer. I think he has a crush on her.

Buff Baby!

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

I spotted a little Leprechaun sneaking around my house this morning. I think he's after me lucky charms! Daddy finally caught him!

So Sweet, Isn't He?

Walking Around

Baby Grayson

My friend Angela had a new little baby boy on February 12th. He was a few weeks early, but he is completely perfect, as you can see from this precious picture! He looks so little next to my big boy!!

Aunt Laura's Special Day

Eleven Months

Nicholas is shown here with his favorite toy - the remote. Just like a real man!
Can you believe he's eleven months old? I can't
Did you just take my picture?!

Visitor

We enjoyed a visit from Uncle Phillip last weekend. Nick had a cozy nap on a sunny afternoon.

I Do Love My Cheerios!

Nick's favorite snack is Cheerios, (or in this case, Kroger-brand multi-grain O's). He likes them because they're Heart-Smart! YUM!

Having Fun With Dad

Nick still loves to stick that tongue out! It wouldn't be any fun, of course, unless I was missing at least one sock!

I Love Abby, But I'm Not Sure The Feeling Is Mutual.

I Lost My Sock.

Looking Outside
